(Jewish Group) Jewish Groups Protest Polish Guesthouse Ban on Jews

[Behind the Aegis]

(THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP!! RESPECT!!)

The World Jewish Congress on Sunday announced it was deeply disturbed and disappointed by the Polish government’s failure to intervene to remove a flagrantly anti-Semitic banner at the entrance to a guest house near the western city of Wroclaw, and to prosecute those responsible for posting it.

The sign at the Dom Polski (a Polish home) guest house in Cesarzowice declared: “Entry forbidden to Jews, Commies, and all thieves and traitors of Poland,” against a red and white backdrop, Poland’s national colors.

WJC CEO Robert Singer said that the sign “conjures up memories of ghetto benches and other chilling manifestations of anti-Semitism in Poland in the late 1930s. Given Poland’s history, we would have expected the authorities to act forcefully and swiftly to put a stop to such activity, which is illegal and utterly contravenes the democratic norms Warsaw is committed to upholding.”

5. My ancestors left Poland in the early 1900s fleeing pogroms.

Not surprised to see these kinds of things in Poland.
